Being the grandson of Nelson Mandela sounds like a wonderful thing. But for Ndaba Mandela it has been a mixed blessing. He is the child of Nelson's son Magkatho and his wife Zondi. Ndaba grew up in Soweto under South Africa's apartheid regime. At the time, Nelson Mandela was one of the leaders of the banned African National Congress and seen by the country's white minority government as a terrorist. He had been sentenced to life imprisonment. After serving 27 years in prison he was released and Ndaba went to live with him. Ndaba has written a book about his grandfather called 'Going to the Mountain'.
